Normocytic means, literally, "normal cell." It's often used in the context of describing anemia, where it indicates cells of normal size, rather than those that are too big, which are macrocytic, or too small, which are microcytic.
* Cell size (blood cells): (Terms that refer to cellular size end with "cytic".) normocytes (normal) microcytes (smaller than normal) macrocytes (larger than normal) anisocytes (various sizes)
